I searched for "extend existing monitors" and "base monitor" but did not find any other feature requests.

🔖 Feature description

Most of monitors on my system are the same except the URL and Friendly Name. I have been tweaking other setting to reduce false positives yet get notified of an outage as quick as possible. Would be cool to have a base monitor that you could change and the change would be applied to the other monitors that are based off that monitor.

✔️ Solution

Like the clone but the system maintains the connection between the two. Each field can either get a new value or get the value from the base monitor.

❓ Alternatives

No response

Sharing state as you are requesting is pretty error-prown and I don't think we should support this.

Something like the following seems much simpler in comparison (no tangling of monitors to some different system as suggested here).:

#1323
#455
